Recent atomic force microscopy (AFM) experiments~[ACS Nano {\bf 2014}, 8, 12410-12417] conducted on graphene-coated SiO$_2$ demonstrated that monolayer graphene (G) can effectively screen dispersion van der Waals (vdW) interactions deriving…
Recently the graphene/SiC interface has emerged as a versatile platform for the epitaxy of otherwise unstable, monoelemental, two-dimensional (2D) layers via intercalation. Intrinsically capped into a van der Waals heterostructure with…
We investigate the van der Waals friction between graphene and an amorphous SiO$_2$ substrate. We find that due to this friction the electric current is saturated at a high electric field, in agreement with experiment. The saturation…
